A '''galaxy''' is a system consisting of gases, stars, planets, and [[Prankster Comet|comet]]s. [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] visits many galaxies in their adventures through ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. There is a total of 91 different galaxies between the two games: 42 in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' and 49 in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', most galaxies are observed from six different [[dome]]s onboard the [[Comet Observatory]]. These domes show the player up to five galaxies and give them the option to fly to those galaxies in order to search for Power Stars. Just outside of each dome is a [[Hungry Luma]], which transforms into an additional galaxy after the player feeds it a certain number of [[Star Bit]]s. The remaining galaxies in the game are accessed via other areas on or around the Comet Observatory, including the [[Planet of Trials]] and the [[Gate (Super Mario Galaxy)|Gate]]. In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', galaxies are grouped into seven different [[World]]s, each of which contains a total of seven galaxies. One Hungry Luma is encountered in each World, which transforms into a new galaxy when called to [[Starship Mario]] and fed the required number of Star Bits.

Asterisk (*) denotes galaxies unlocked by feeding Hungry Lumas.

*In both ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', galaxies are commonly represented by three-dimensional revolving icons which consist of either one planet found in the galaxy or multiple planets in the galaxy. In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', only 29 of the 42 total galaxies in the game have revolving icons, as the other thirteen remaining galaxies are accessed outside of one of the six main domes. In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' however, every galaxy in the game has an icon. In addition, every galaxy icon in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' is surrounded by a faint blue circular force field, possibly the atmosphere of the galaxy.

*In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', there is a sponsor named after galaxies known as [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Galaxy Air|Galaxy Air]].
